Holey Moley!!

With so much going on, where do I begin?!?

We went to Utah for my Spring Break, just to take a look around for housing and finalize some paperwork for my job. We contacted our good friend, and now Realtor, Ed Treto, to show us a few places. Nine houses later and we had not really found what made us go "There it is! That's the one!"

Saturday morning we were preparing to head down to Salt Lake for a photo shoot, and my Uncle G suggested we check out a particular house he had had his eye on. We drove by it Friday night, made an appointment to see it with the realtors, and fell in love with it! Needless to say, we are buying a house in Ogden! So ExCiTiNg!!! It is a "starter home" of four bedrooms, technically five but one room needs the closet finished, and two bathrooms. It has a nice sized backyard with plenty of room to build a garage/studio and have a great garden. We couldn't be more excited.....and a bit scared. So many changes!

{{...officially so...}}

Well, it is official... I was offered a contract with Ogden School District and we are moving to Utah this summer... Now I know there are those who will be so happy that we are leaving the San Pedro area and those who will weep.

It will be a grand adventure...

< Faith and Hope>

Conference was great! We were able to start it off with our annual get together with friends from the San Pedro Ward past and present...{thanks nocella's for hosting!}
One of the main messages that I kept hearing was that of faith and hope. Powerful messages to hear at this time. I should give a bit of background...


I received an email on Monday regarding an opportunity that would be taking place on Thursday. I made arrangements to make it down to the San Diego area by setting up a sub and finding my carpool buddy, since Gailon would need to be at work.

Thursday morning came and Teesha met me at the house, and off we went on our adventure. There was one glitch...I had a touch of food poisoning and had already been "sick" twice that morning, but I had made a commitment and needed to be on my way. So off we went!

We began our journey and made the first stop...at the Redlands Temple!

Of course we were going to totally document this whole trip!
RoAd TrIpPiNg!!

But we didn't....

At least we got the beginning!


So, our adventure continued on to the San Diego area, business concluded, two more visits with my friend "John" {get it...}, and back home to sleep until 3am. At that point I decided there was no way I could make it to work and called in for a sub, {actually i got on the website and ordered one...}.

Next time, our road trippin will be more trippin than road! Thanks again Teesha for being my carpool partner and helping me out with the venture!

Can't wait to hear how it all turned out!!!
